Activity of new quinolones against ciprofloxacin-resistant staphylococci.
Because of the development of newer fluoroquinolones with improved activity against gram-positive organisms, we elected to compare the inhibitory properties of ofloxacin, temafloxacin, sparfloxacin, PD131628, PD127391, and WIN57273 against 105 ciprofloxacin-resistant staphylococci. Based on comparison of MICs for 90% of the organisms (MIC90s), WIN57273 was the most active agent against oxacilli...
متن کاملBactericidal activity of ciprofloxacin against amikacin- and cefotaxime-resistant gram-negative bacilli and methicillin-resistant staphylococci.
The MICs and MBCs of ciprofloxacin were determined for clinical isolates of antibiotic-resistant aerobic bacteria. Decreased susceptibility to ciprofloxacin of cefotaxime- and amikacin-resistant Serratia marcescens and amikacin-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were noted. The data suggest that ciprofloxacin susceptibility should be carefully monitored in treating patients with hospital-...
متن کاملComparative in-vitro activity of new quinolones against clinical isolates and resistant mutants.
The in-vitro activity of five new fluoroquinolones, WIN 57273, sparfloxacin, fleroxacin, temafloxacin and ciprofloxacin was determined against 543 recent clinical isolates and eight quinolone resistant strains derived by mutation and their five parent strains. WIN 57273 was the most active compound against Gram-positive bacteria, sparfloxacin had a broad spectrum which was similar to that of ci...
متن کاملCellular accumulation and activity of quinolones in ciprofloxacin-resistant J774 macrophages.
Ciprofloxacin is the substrate for a multidrug resistance-related protein (MRP)-like multidrug transporter in J774 mouse macrophages, which also modestly affects levofloxacin but only marginally affects garenoxacin and moxifloxacin (J.-M. Michot et al., Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 49:2429-2437, 2005). Two clones of ciprofloxacin-resistant cells were obtained by a stepwise increase in drug con...
متن کاملMutasynthesis of lincomycin derivatives with activity against drug-resistant staphylococci.
The lincomycin biosynthetic gene lmbX was deleted in Streptomyces lincolnensis ATCC 25466, and deletion of this gene led to abolition of lincomycin production. The results of complementation experiments proved the blockage in the biosynthesis of lincomycin precursor 4-propyl-L-proline. Feeding this mutant strain with precursor derivatives resulted in production of 4'-butyl-4'-depropyllincomycin...
